I was going to ask you who built the motor, but I saw the classified. Not familiar with that company. I haven't been involved with circle track for several years. Used to help Ray Fullen when he was running Jay Marion's late model/ASA car. Actually Ray had 2 ASA cars and Rick Rhonnemus(sp?) had two owned by Jay. They ran Dillion chassis, Golden Motors from Gran Rapids, Mi. That was back when they ran V-8's in one series and V-6's in the other series. Ray won the V-6 Championship one year and Rick was second.
Then I worked p/t for ASA one summer. That was fun. Was fortunate to meet a few Cup drivers who would run ASA on an off weekend.
Long time since I had heard the name Rick Rhonnemus. I enjoyed the ASA late models and the regular Saturday night Bobby Field and Vic Hellis.
I haven't seen him in several years. He used to live in Desoto, n-e of Muncie. A few of that era are still running a little. I saw that Rick Turner and Bull Baker ran over at Winchester a few weeks ago. Not sure who else.
Does anyone know the history of the Cadillac powered sprint car that Bobby Leever used to drive ?
i knew bob and was out several times to his house on 38th st just off bypass. i think howard hall build the car or had something to do with it? i know he never could get it to handle right, is he still living,i know he had medical problems few years back.
